I’ve been lazying around these days. Too lazy to update
my blog. Couldn’t be bothered to change the layout as well. However, I feel so
called upon to write this post as people were raging like hell about this Nur
Amalina issue. Many went nuts and cursed her for being ‘inappropriate’. She was
accused of being influenced by the western cultures to dress ‘inappropriately’.
Some were even worse to throw remarks at her mum for not ‘teaching’ her how to
behave like a Muslim. There’s another picture of her, being ‘inappropriately’
close to a white guy. In that picture, proximity was the issue. Some bloggers
confidently stated that they’re in a relationship. Later on, she denied it in
an interview conducted by a blogger through Skype. She clearly stated that the
guy is her best friend, saying that there are other guys in other pictures
though they aren’t exposed in the ‘photo leakage’ incident.
I strongly disagree with some comments in certain blogs,
condemning her to be dressing like that. For me, I admit that her dress was
indeed sexy than what the Malays would commonly wear. But here’s my two cents,
there are millions (and this is not an exaggeration) of Malay girls walking
around in KL or JB wearing something even worse - so why did they (referring to
those who condemning her) curse her when they didn’t even see her for real?
They’ve seen the real stuffs with their two eyes in shopping malls here but
have they spoken of the same manner, cursing and swearing towards the ones in
front of em? In other case, some people were mad at her and argued their points
religiously. I only agreed to a few of them. Most were blabbering and cursing ‘in
a religious manner’ of which I found stupid. Come on, don’t act like you’re a
good Muslim when you clearly talked about others sin in the open!! You said
this and that as if you’re giving advice - are you really that stupid? The
poorly accused girl wouldn’t have known about your facebook status and how
would you call that as ‘giving advice’? Bastards....
Secondly, I really hate those people who were directing
comments and remarks about the photo of her and the guy friend. Oh come on
people! U’ve seen billions of such pictures in your newspaper and magazines of
those artists you worship!!!!!! Is it okay when Maya Karin did that bed scene
with Aaron Aziz? Or maybe Lisa Surihani with the same guy, in the same movie?
Is it? Yet, many have cried watching Ombak Rindu. But later on, some of those
cry babies cursed Nur Amalina for that ‘friendly’ photo. For god’s sake, she
still had her clothes on!!! It’s not like Maya Karin who only wear a freakin
batik!!!! I really believe that those who gladly cursed her for that particular
photo are morons. “Kuman seberang laut ko nampak ek, haaaa gajah sebesar2 tidak
kat depan mate ko boley x nampak plak!”
Sigh.... I am a proud Malay. In fact, I believe that I am
a pro-Malay. However, I am grateful that I am unbiased and fairly wise most of
the time. I felt bad for what some Malays did and said about Nur Amalina. Bad
because she had to bear with negative exposure caused by her own people!! They should have act appropriately upon the issue (if it's really an issue at all). There are so many better ways to give advice and cursing is definitely not one of them. Sorry
Amalina, but just suck it up yeah. Those that don’t kill you, make you
stronger...
